• Set NPM_TOKEN in Repository Settings > Secrets > "Action Secrets" (see below)

Adding your NPM Automation Token

To authenticate the publish-to-npm.yml Github Actions workflow, you will need to setup a NPM access token in two easy steps:

Step #1 - Get a NPM publish token

• Login to npmjs.com
• Go to Access Token > Create New Access Token
• Select an "Automation" token, then press Generate Token
• Store the token somewhere! (for the second step - it's only displayed once!)

Step #2 - Add NPM token as "NPM_TOKEN" secret

• Go to repository settings on Github (where you push your package's code to)
• Go to Settings (repository) > Secrets > New repository secret
• Add your NPM publish token (from Step #1) as NPM_TOKEN:

Development

yarn watch / npm run watch

Test

yarn test / npm run test

Publish to NPM

Push a commit to main branch - .github/workflows/publish-to-npm.yml will automatically publish a new patch version to NPM.
